PROBLEM AREA
PROBLEM AREA
Building materials absorb & reflect cellular
signals from penetrating inside a specific
location.
As mobile usage continues to increase, the macro network (outdoor mobile coverage)
had improved over time. Deployments of additional cell sites and enhancements of
existing networks resulted to fewer dropped calls, clear connections, and stronger
signals.
However, many subscribers encounter incomplete coverage in certain areas because
the wireless network continues to face challenges of delivering seamless coverage by
overcoming physical obstacles made of steel and concrete. Many factors are held
accountable which limit the penetration of cellular signals within an establishment,
including the change of weather and environmental conditions.

Every home, every office, every application is complex. The HR900G are engineered
to specifically address these challenges.
The HR900G seamlessly relay radio communication signals between a cell tower and
mobile handset located inside an environment. The system consists two main
components: a bi-directional repeater unit and the directional patch antenna unit.
The antenna unit is aligned to the closest cell tower to captures available cellular
signals. The signals are sent to the repeater unit via low-loss coaxial cable. The
repeater unit filters unwanted noise and amplifies clean signal via omni-directional
dipole antenna.

Introduction
Introduction
Congratulations!You have purchased the finest, most comprehensive SOHO (small office, home office)
repeater kit available.
The HR900G extends cellular coverage for low signal strength areas. You will experience broader coverage
through enhanced filtering and superior amplifying performance.
Understanding tomorrow’s market demands and the mix of technology standards, the HR900G is intelligently
designed to provide interference protection of any existing wireless networks and/or radio communications
frequencies.

-Installation Guidelines
Installation Guidelines
OUTDOOR SIGNAL STRENGTH
The Antenna unit receives/transmits cellular signals from/to the nearest cell site. Locate and
identify an area for mounting of the Antenna unit as high as possible . The use of a cellular
phone’s signal level indicator helps locate the strongest signal location for mounting the antenna
unit.
ISOLATION
The dipole antenna connected to repeater unit and antenna unit requires a minimum separation
distance of 15 feet and/or separation between an exterior wall. It is important to create isolation
between the two antennas.
VOID INTERIOR OBSTRUCTION
The repeater unit receives/transmits cellular signals from/to the handset. The location of the
repeater unit should have a direct line-of-site to as much of the coverage area desired. The
repeater unit should not be place behind heavy furniture or metal objects that may block, absorb,
or reflect the signal.
CENTRAL LOCATION
Based upon the desired coverage area, find a location for the repeater unit for accessibility within reach
and within 6 feet of nearest power outlet. The provided power supply is 6 feet in length.

Locate an area with strong cellular signal to place the antenna unit. Typically 1 to 2
bars or -90dBm ~ 95dBm will be sufficient for the HR900G Repeater to relay cellular
reception to desired area.
Inside home window OR Roof top of home or office
Temporarily set and position the antenna unit where cellular signal is strongest.
Tightly connect the supplied dipole antenna on repeater unit where indicated TO
MOBILE on side panel of repeater unit.
Place the repeater unit where coverage is required. Connect the repeater unit and
antenna unit via coaxial cable where indicated TO BASE on side panel of repeater
unit. Note the signal level your mobile phone shows at the area where coverage is
needed.
Home/Office Installation Procedure
Home/Office Installation Procedure
Use of cellular phone’s
signal indicator will help
locate strongest signal area.
10

Connect power plug to
repeater unit jack first.
Then connect the power adapter to the
power outlet.
Verify the system is working by checking for the GREEN
light on the repeater unit’s LED display.
Compare signal level from step 2. If there is
improvement, skip to STEP 5. If there is no
improvement, go to STEP 4.
Re-positioning of the antenna unit is required. Simply adjust the panel until locating the
line of sight to the nearest cell site/ base transreceiver station.
*Rotate panel in one inch increments and wait 20 seconds for results. Continue
process until strongest signal position is determined.
15feetseparation
15feetseparation
Minimum of 15 feet separation of the dipole
antenna and antenna unit is required.

Permanently mount antenna unit and repeater unit that resulted in the strongest
signal level in the coverage area. Installation is now complete. For additional
information refer to page 12 or visit www.hyoninc.com.

Trouble Shooting
Trouble Shooting
If the HR900G does not operate properly after installation and the signal
level is same as before, refer to the following steps below:
Most Common FAULTS
Most Common FAULTS
NO LIGHT –Indicates HR900G is missing power source.
•Ensure proper connection between repeater unit and power adapter.
•Ensure proper connection between power adapter and electrical outlet.
•Test for line voltage availability on electrical outlet. If electrical outlet is verified in working
condition, repeater unit and/or power adapter may be defective. Contact dealer with available
serial number located on side of repeater unit.
RED solid –Indicates a fault. Disconnect the power adapter from repeater unit and continue with
necessary verifications below:
•The indoor antenna and outdoor antenna are placed too closed to each other indicating poor isolation.
Relocation of minimum separation distance of 15 feet or more is required. A isolation of repeater unit and
antenna unit between a exterior wall is also recommended for better operation. The Antenna unit should
face away from the Repeater Unit towards the closest cell tower.
If red light remains on, this indicated overload of input signal. Unplug the power source from the Repeater
unit. Rotate the direction of the Antenna unit or relocation to a position where signal is weaker.
•If red light remains on, Repeater unit may be defective. Contact dealer with available
serial number located on side of repeater unit.
Technical Support
Technical Support
HR900G Repeater’s serial number must be available to authorize technical
support and/or to establish a return authorization for defective units. The
serial numbers are located on the side panel of repeater unit, as well as on
the box in which they were delivered.
Additional support information may be obtained by accessing the
